The “WTF?!” Thread

[Thaluikhain]

So they made children's ABC book about Alien. As in the movie.

A Is for Alien: An ABC Book (20th Century Studios) by Charles Gould: 9780736444842 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books

In space no one can hear you giggle as you read this Little Golden Book for all ages featuring the characters from the classic movie Alien! Follow Ripley and the rest of the Nostromo crew on a space...

Next up, A is for A Serbian Movie

Apparently the next Alien movie is going to be about a bunch of teenagers. And 40k has it's kid's books.

Apparently He-Man was originally going to be about Conan the Barbarian, from the films, but they realised that wasn't kid friendly so they made their own thing.

I got this mug for Xmas, not particularly into Star Wars, but it does amuse me that there is a Jedi called Kit Fisto and they decided to put their name on a mug.

The pinnacle of funny Star Wars names: The novelization for Return of the Jedi stated that the band at the Mos Eisley cantina played "jizz music". (And to be fair, this was decades before that term acquired its current meaning; it used to mean "energy" and was obviously meant to parallel jazz music.)

no not a cursed Ai prompt for nazi hogwarts, is indeed a real person. Was even on Alex Jones infowars recently. Strategy is evidently now just throwing the whole overton window out the, uh, wi...pram?



if morbid curiosity too much, can hear how batshit insane they sound in person, laundered through lense of sensible humans for sanity's sake;

In this installment, Dan and Jordan "enjoy" their first 2024 episode of The Alex Jones Show. They tune in to find a very dumb "deep dive" about Epstein, and Alex interviewing yet another person who seems to really like Adolph Hitler. Bad start to 2024.

I started to post this in the "Today I Learned," but it got me riled up enough that it falls under "WTF?!?" I found out about a new life hack making its rounds throughout social media called "travel dupes." Basically, if you find your dream vacation destination is too expensive, too busy, or otherwise too inconvenient for your 1st world life, you can.... go somewhere else.

​

Yup, that's it; just go somewhere else. Who'da thunk that "somewhere else" has been an option in all the history of vacationing?? Common fucking sense is trending on social media, FFS. I'm going to start a trend of my own: "You want pizza for dinner, but a WHOLE pizza is too much? Try a calzone!" I'm going to rack up a billion followers with my plethora of "food dupes."

Caviar and Champagne too expensive?

No need to starve to death, just buy something cheaper!

Hey, no stealing my food dupes ideas!!

Ok, ok, hang on a minute...

Smashing yourself in the face with a hammer? No need to suffer in pain, just stop!

"Oh my Gawd, stop caring about your job so much!"

"Oh my Gawd, stop caring about your job so much!"

Eh, depends how he did it. If he never break character, and acts like Jared Leto supposedly did when being the Joker, that'd get old fast.

No Die Hard? No Muppet's Christmas Carol? Pft...

No Christmas Vacation or Bad Santa either. I smell bs in this list.

OMG: "please help."

Darth Vader upon hearing Padame has passed, "well, I guess she has gotten out of house chores forever!" Ba dum dum!

What on Earth makes such people? It is this tone deafness that has caused so much destruction in today's fantasy culture.

This is unhinged, up there with the Prince Andrew interview for unsettling, car-crash failed attempts to fool the public 'everything is totes normal over here y'all.' Also, by vast coincidence, connects directly to the last minutes of the last 2-part of episode of Behind the Bastards podcast released Thursday just gone.

Oh shit, I saw an old interview with that woman and the boy (although an adult by that time) a while ago. It was awful. Poor kid, and poor man.

Yeah, agreed. Thankfully he eventually divorced in the end, just before her death. That particular interview is like where you can see him slowly start to realise and contend with what was always lurking underneath. Am not fond of the weird shit-eating grin/smirk the interviewer has throughout though, the only good person in that room is the poor guy going through his perhaps long overdue revelation.
